Just to report if someone found useful. Been testing this HTTP-Tunnel - www.http-tunnel.com for 2 days now. Lucky me, they gave 1 week free key to try their high bandwidth server. Downloading is awesome and fast. Connection speed sustain at 50+ all the time (RM66 package). But need to limit 1 or 2 torrent at a time coz their tunneling apps not very stable yet. Not yet tried with other client, only uTorrent. Bitcomet is recommended by them but I hate to change client. Seeding not so great though but I think that's coz Tmnet cap my http upload so bad only can get max 10kB only. Mostly 5kB. Not so bad for USD4.99 a month. When seeding just use normal way.

Easy. Download their software, install and go to configure -->select Auto Detect and click test. It will configure itself and you're done with it.
Now go to your client. I use utorrent, so Preferences --> Connection --> under "Proxy Server" change the "Type:" from "none" to "socks4" or "socks5". I use socks5 because they support UDP but socks4 also can. Fill in "Proxy:" with "localhost" or "127.0.0.1" and "Port:" with "1080". Don't forget to tick "use proxy server for peer-to-peer connection" --> OK.
Your r done. But mind you that their free server (without key) can go up to 1.5kB only. Not so useful for P2P.

^^ That for testing only. Just to confirm it's working. If you can browse with IE than you're good to go. No need to surf the net using proxy, revert to normal setting if everthing is OK.

Find proxy option in your client and configure it as my post above.

I'm using http-tunnel. Google it. Edit: It's not the same as relakks but sufficient for BT. IMHO, it's better than relakks. This post has been edited by adx: Oct 17 2006, 04:13 PM

Yup. The config is the same. localhost for proxy server and 1080 for port. You MUST subscribe, the free one is a low bandwidth server. You'll never get more than 1.5kB.
Edit: If you have nod32 AV, put http-tunnel in your exclusion list or the client will crash.

Hmm.. I think this might work and I don't think that they have any advance shaping device at work. Noticed that when you're trying to access a website that initiate multiple connection at one, it still take time to load page. Maybe, it's true they use lame connection count to limit torrent speed.
The question is, how many connection is max and how to decrease outgoing connection without affecting speed at the same time? Seem impossible with bittorent protocol.

QUOTE(omikron @ Oct 19 2006, 10:16 AM) I'm assuming you use the pay one. So, did you mange to get back your full speed? Yup. I'm using paid one aka high bandwidth server. And yes, I got my speed back. I'm on rm66 package currently dl at 55-60kB. For nod32 user, add http-tunnel in your IMON exclusion list or else the tunnel client will crash.

@omikron Close your BT client. Install http-tunnel. Run it and click on configure. Select no proxy,only firewall and click test. Open utorrent -->preferences-->connection. Under proxy server type choose socks4, proxy localhost or 127.0.0.1, port 1080. Maybe you want to try the new http-tunnel beta version optimised for BT. Can be download here: http://http-tunnel.com/bt/HTTP-TunnelClientv443953.zipJust extract it to different folder and run it. It will automaticly use your key. Repeat the above again if you're using the beta one. This post has been edited by adx: Oct 19 2006, 09:24 PM

^^ Yup. Upload speed seem to be the problem with http-tunnel. If your upload is not throttle, swith to normal connection to overcome it. I'm out of luck though due to both down/up being throttle. I don't have problem with slow torrent start. My speed kick in almost immeadiately. You might want to increase your half-open connection. Patch your tcpip.sys to 50.
